Some of our favorite roses - Part 1

it is easy to pass off roses as just a common go to flowers for many occasions, but there are some varieties that just dazzle us.

Here are some of my favorite roses to use in both daily arrangements and bridal work.

  • Magic Times - These pink and cream roses are not scented but their colors are breathtaking, they look almost painted .

  • Early Grey Roses : The Early Grey rose is a specialty color and reminds people of sterling silver which is commercially not grown much anymore. It has green outer petals that blend into a very light lavender, almost grey hue spiraling through to its center.

  • Black Baccara Roses: The burgundy Black Baccara rose is the darkest deepest red rose available – the center of this rose will show some red and the petals get a darker and darker burgundy on the outer petals. The petals look like velvet and give an interesting touch to any flower arrangement, especially those that have a modern feel. They can last up to 12 days or more with proper care and handling,

  • Pink Intuition Roses: The Pink Intuition rose is a unique addition to any designs with its striations of medium and dark pink.

  • Cappuccino Rose: Cappuccino roses have a very special color. There are very few growers in the world who offer this unique variety. It has a spectacular color of beige brown with a slight pink raspberry edge.
